"Schools & Institutions" - Educational Software Licensing Liability for Schools by G.C. Hutson w/ Sadien, Inc.
Schools, colleges, and institutions are extremely vulnerable to software license audits and lawsuits because they have elements working against them, that most organizations don't have to manage. It simply takes one disgruntled student or faculty member to make a call to the Business Software Alliance, the SIIA or in-house legal department with a big software company to spark an adversarial software license audit. The claims do not need to be valid or based in reality for an auditing group to inquire.
